I don’t think it’s even debatable at this point

He's stuck like his pal McVay was when he had Goff. He can't win like this. There's a reason Kyle tried to lure Brady to SF last Spring.

Remember his buddy McVay couldn't win without a top QB. His father couldn't win without a top QB.

He isn't winning with Brock Purdy
To be fair most coaches don't win a title without that QB including BB and Andy

He traded up for him. He can own all of that blame.

Kyle wanted Kirk Cousins in 2017. That's a big reason why he didn't draft Mahomes. According to his father, he was willing to trade the 3rd overall pick to Minnesota for Kirk.

I'd put good money on Kyle going after Kirk next month now that he's a FA. It's gonna take work to figure that out but I think that's gonna be his plan.

Zero chance that happens. Purdy on a rookie deal is their best bet with the roster as it stands today. They can't pay Cousins and keep their core together.

Yes and no..

Look at the other QBs in that draft, they picked the wrong year to suck ass so they had the ability to move. The only QB I think would have made it work is Lawrence and Jacksonville wasn't gonna do that.

Look at the others..

Zach Wilson
Trey Lance
Justin Fields
Mac Jones


Kyle Trask
Kellen Mond
Davis Mills


It was a really really bad QB year, Mac Jones would basically be Brock Purdy in SF the only one I think would be any better is Wilson and that is provided Shanahan could work with him.

That only works if Lance fell into their lap.

They aggressively traded up for him.

They'd have to cut Kittle and probably Armstead to make Cousins work.

Yea they can't do that, matter of fact they are already going to have massive issues keeping their talent together without paying a QB.

They'd probably lose those 2 and Aiyuk...and Chase Young.

If you take away their talent advantage to improve QB to the Cousins level they actually get worse.

Can't do it. Roster is too locked in and I don't see Cousins taking $5 million to go to SF.

They have to ride this out for one and probably two more seasons with Purdy. I mean it's not going to work, but the way they've built their roster and their cap pretty much gives them no alternative.

Dude what? There is no way that is happening.

Young and Aiyuk are gone anyway.

They could probably get a late 1 for Aiyuk.

In 2 years Kyle Shanahan is going to bolt, their roster is going to be old and not talented and he's going to have an overpaid game manager QB.

Their talent advantage is the only reason they win games, if you take Aiyuk and Kittle off that team then your top weapons are an RB who just touched the ball a huge amount of times with an injury history and a WR who is always injured...

Trent Williams is a declining player and the rest of their line is marginal.

Speaking of Veach and how kick-ass our GM is, this really warms my heart. According to Spotrac, teams with least cap space:

31. Buffalo, $51.8M OVER the salary cap
30. Miami, $51.2M OVER
29. LA Chargers, $44M OVER
28. Denver, $25.7M OVER

17. KC, $22.6M UNDER
